Long lived in Creteil, one of the suburbs in Paris, France, in 1977 born to an French mother and an British father. He graduated from the University of London, where the doctor earned an Ph.D. at the Institute for the Study of the Americas and a Masters in Political Science and a Bachelor of History from the School of Oriental and African Studies. Long first visited Latin America at the age of 18 and spent an long time in Central America before arriving in Ecuador in 1996.

The conference was scheduled for 30 September, which was the year of the failure of the uprising/coup against Correa in the year 2010.

Business sectors but also certain factions within Correa’s government complained that Long, along with other senior officials in the Correa administration, opposed the free trade agreement between Ecuador, Colombia and Peru, and the European Union, which Ecuador finally adhered to in December

2016. He and others were considered to be the “enemy within”.

This issue played an important role in Ecuadorian domestic politics. In one of his weekly editorials, former Foreign Minister Francisco Carrión claimed that Long had said that “one breathes happiness” in Venezuela. Long denounced this as a lie and pushed Carrión to prove these had been his words. Unable to do so, Carrión was eventually forced to apologize on Twitter. During the elections of 2017, Long said that there was an attempt to influence the population “with the argument that Ecuador is going to become like Venezuela. (…) Well no, Ecuador is not Venezuela”. This declaration was the Ecuadorian Government’s clearest attempt thus far to distance itself from the Venezuelan crisis.
